MY DICTATION IS THUS:
>GRASS TYPE NOW RESISTS FAIRY--fae magic helps mother nature to grow.
>FAIRY TYPE NOW RESISTS DRAGON--the full immunity was deemed to be overkill.
>ICE TYPE NOW RESISTS GROUND--of all the things on this list, this one only makes vague sense, and this is mostly a balance decision.
>ICE TYPE NOW RESISTS ELECTRIC--snow is a truly terrible electric conductor, ergo electricity logically has trouble trying to travel through it.
>in compensation to electric, who did not need a nerf--ELECTRIC TYPE NOW DOES DOUBLE DAMAGE AGAINST THOSE WITH THE LEVITATE ABILITY--for the same reason flying is weak to it; anything airborne is far more devastated when hit by lightning.
>GHOST TYPE NOW NO LONGER RESISTS BUG--literally why did it ever.
>BUG TYPE NOW RESISTS PSYCHIC--insects have alien/robotic/hive minds that make mental attacks difficult to use, because an insect's mind is too bizarre to control.
>PSYCHIC TYPE NOW IS NEUTRAL ON STEEL--it should not really matter how strong steel is, because espers don't attack you physically, they attack you mentally. no straightforward fortifications can stop that.
>STEEL TYPE NOW IS NEUTRAL ON STEEL--if any material is strong enough to penetrate steel, it would be steel.
>WATER TYPE NOW NO LONGER RESISTS ICE--an ice resistance to water is not granted for logical reasons, and nor is a water gaining a weakness to ice, because:
>WATER NOW IS WEAK TO POISON--I wasn't going to grant this one, however poison very clearly needs another strength, and upon the entire type chart this decision is by far the most practical.
>GHOST TYPE NOW IS RESISTED BY ROCK--this one seems odd. however aside from being good on both ends for balance, it is a semi-common paranormal belief that ghosts are unable to phase through brick walls.
>and finally--FIGHTING IS IMMUNE TO FLINCH, PSYCHIC IS IMMUNE TO CONFUSION, AND FAIRY IS IMMUNE TO INFATUATION.
